Pangea Online: Death and Axes

A LitRPG Novel

De: S.L. Rowland

Narrado por: Justin Thomas James, Laurie Catherine Winkel

Everything has a price. Pangea Online is no different.

Since leaving the orphanage, Esil has spent the past year toiling in the data mines of Pangea while watching the wealthy elite traverse its myriad of game worlds. His luck changes forever when he discovers a legendary Developer's Chest. The Premium Worldpass inside grants him unlimited access to all of Pangea.

Now, Esil isn't just stuck watching as others explore Pangea. He can finally level up. With his newfound fortune, he enters a tournament to compete against some of the most skilled adventurers Pangea has to offer. He’s a long shot to win but for the first time in his life, being a kid from the slums has its advantages when he discovers a bug in the obscure data-mining class.

With an even playing field, he might just have a shot. But, his in-game actions have real-world consequences and failure online threatens everything he holds dear.

I fun listen

This book reminds me a little of Ready Player One, which the dystopian future, and the boxes, but it differs by it was from nuclear fallout. I see that the world basically lives in the online world. It is based in a fantasy world, which is pretty common for most RPGlit books. The only thing I was sadden by was I bought the book and it did not connect to the audio, this might be because I was given the audio, and bought the book. The idea of putting all your stat points into one Stat I have seen before in Life Reset. This is a good book, but the text and the audio.

Fantastic series Hope for more!

I need more!!! I also need full immersion VR!! The story is great Love how anyone can just randomly find a Dev Chest spawned in rock! Like what Luck!! Fantastic need more!!!

Welcome to Pangea Online

Esil is an orphan is a post nuclear war world. Most of the people spend as much of their life as they can in the online game called Pangea Online. This is not just one game, but hundreds of different worlds. Some fantasy, some sports, just about anything. Game currency is the most stable form of world currency. Sadly, as Esil is a poor ward of the state, his world consists of a small drab room and only access to a mine where he mined away at the virtual coal. Then, one day every thing changed.

I really like the variety that this game/world provides. One chapter, Esil is deep in a coal mine, the next he is in snow capped mountains. The characters are very well developed. A huge benefit is that there is a male and female narrator if you prefer audible. Spoiler: one of my favorite aspects is that the bug in the game is actually patched once it’s found. Imagine that!

Content warning: none

Fun story

Story reminded me of Ready Player One without the overbearing evil company serving as the antagonist. Very fun listen. SoundBooth is a great group of talented narrators.

Amazing book and narration

I loved the cast in the narration of this wonderful book. the best part being there is still 2 more to binge.

A truly great LITRPG

This series and this author are truly outstanding. The story and narration are spot on. This is a great tale Of an underdog succeeding and triumphing over the system. Rowland and his narrators deliver an amazing tale well worth listening to by all. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
